Bump Update – Week 37
Yikes! It’s been such a busy weekend that I’m *just* now getting to the weekly bump post I do on Saturdays. I suppose this far into the pregnancy I can blame it on how I’m feeling. Sumo wrestler sums it … Continue reading

Bump Update – Week 31
We’ve (and again, I mean the awesome Mr. Jason) made a little progress this week in getting things ready for baby girl. With a switch in the amount of people available for service calls at his job, he hasn’t had … Continue reading
